Every week, the CHL releases a list of the top-10 teams in the league. Throughout the season, we at The Hockey News will be keeping track of which WHL teams are in the rankings, as well as who finishes the year ranked highest. Here is a look at the four WHL teams that made the Week 3 rankings.
Edmonton Oil Kings- 4th
The Edmonton Oil Kings are once again the top team in the WHL. Edmonton is now 5-1-0 on the season after posting three straight wins this past week. The Oil Kings look unstoppable of late as they have outscored their opponents 10-1 in their last two games.
Everett Silvertips- 6th
The biggest jump by a WHL team this week was the Everett Silvertips. Now that their drafted players are back, the Silvertips have found their groove as they have scored at least five goals in each of their last three games. As expected, Everett has one of the league's deepest roster and are only going to get better once Carter Bear jumps back into the lineup.
Kelowna Rockets- 8th
The Kelowna Rockets continue to hold down the 8th spot in the CHL rankings. A big reason is that the Rockets didn't play this week, and still remain 2-1-0 on the season. Kelowna also received a big boost this week as Tij Iginla was reassigned and is projected to make his season debut in the near future.
Spokane Chiefs- 9th
The one WHL team that dropped in the rankings was the Spokane Chiefs. It was not an ideal week for Spokane as they fell twice to the Prince George Cougars. That being said, Spokane still has a strong lineup and should be able to bounce back this coming week.

Edmonton Oil Kings: Four Times, Highest Rank- 3rd
